    I like 'em. But for the money you might wanna buy technics. The direct drive Numark 1500's are rubblish but then again they are only £120 a deck so what do you expect?

    yep... they are very good decks. My advice is to take some tunes down to your latest stockist and have a play. Else take the risk, you'll always be able to re-sell them as "unwanted presents" or "my wife is making me get rid of them" :)

    I played with them a few weeks ago and found them a pleasure to DJ with. They didn't have the original carts on them but I had no complaints - lots of torque, no jumping and really solid considering its about £375 a pair. The M3 monitors by Numark are nice too.

    Technics Is absolute Standard... If u wanna try anything different go for the Stanton STR8 150 ... these rock!

    Solid.. good built.. 4,5 torque.. good pitch accuracy..

    Numark mixers are alright - personally I would get the Vestax PMC-06Pro Mixer because of the curve adjustment on the cross fader. But then again they aint cheap.

    Hmmm... I think you missed the point, mate.

    TT200 = £370 a PAIR :lol:
    PDX 2000 = £380 EACH

    ...and beleave me they really aint anywhere near twice as good. TT200 are excellent high-torque direct-drive decks that are perfect for home use. I'd rather put the other £400 notes into buying some absolute zero monitors and 25 records than set stung for a pair of PDX, when your just spinning at home.

    Peace

    but...i bought one good pair of decks...no?
    yes they are big-ass money problem...but
    i read on the net that tt200 after some time tend to break down...
    and that they while touching the plater go faster(if you are
    slowing down the record)!!!thats a big NO-NO for me!
    so i decided to put more money in the stuff,you only once
    buy good set of decks in your life!
    if not ,you are son of some rich big-shot arab guy..

    ...if i am talking shit...
    ...dont listen to me!

    I dunno, If you are gonna spend that much on decks for hom, you should have gone for the standard ie.technics. 9 times out of 10 it is what you will play on in a club/rave, so you need to be good on the industry standard. And that speeding up while you are touching the platter cack, rubbish, goes against the principle of how a direct drive system works, don`t believe a word of it.
    Solitary by nature.
    Isolation is the gift.
    Does anyone have courage to stand apart any more?
